The second meeting of comprehensive review of Trade Treaty between India and Nepal has started in Pokhara, Nepal.

During the two day meeting India will respond to Nepal's proposal of updating treaty submitted in the first meeting held in New Delhi in August 2018.

Both sides will also deliberate upon various bilateral trade issues including ways to reduce Nepal's trade deficit with India.

The Indian delegation is headed by Bhupinder Singh Bhalla, Joint Secretary (South Asia), Department of Commerce, while Ravi Shankar Saiju, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supplies is leading the Nepalese side.

In April last year, India and Nepal had agreed to review trade treaty of 2009 to further boost two way commerce and investments between the countries.
